Back off to Dinamo with the Wildernuts...

This week I've been back at Dinamo Productions in Cardiff, working again on a Flash based children's programme, this time called 'Wildernuts'. It was great again to get back to flash symbol based work and to be be back with alot of the same people I was there with when working on 'The Lingo Show'.

It took a little time to get back used to working with symbols rather than drawing it all in, but once I was off I learned to love it again and the time flew by. Thanks again to everyone at Dinamo for giving me the chance to re-join and contribute to the show, it was a great experience and can only be helpful for the future.

Showtime wins Best 2-D animation glammy 2013...

I'm proud to announce that Showtime won the 'Best 2-D Animation' award at the 2013 University of Glamorgan Glammies! It was a great surprise and I can't thank the judges at Dinamo enough for liking the film so much to vote it the winner. There was some very stiff competition this year, so even to be placed amongst the other pieces of work was good enough for me.

So thank you to everyone who has supported me in the creation of Showtime, as well as throughout University as a whole. It hasn't quite sunk in yet that it is all over, but hopefully it's all up hill and good things from here. But without all of the family and friends support over the past three years I wouldn't be in this position, and I wouldn't be able to say with pride, here is Showtime, please enjoy...

Showtime is going to the Glammies...

After being 5 months in the making, and that's only production, Showtime is finally completed and I couldn't be happier with the overall result. It's the film and the style that I set out make, and luckilly time didn't mean me having to compromise on the look which is a real bonus. And it turns out that all of the hard work, sweat and tears have paid off as it's been nominated in the the Univeristy of Glamorgans 'Glammies' awards 2013 in the best 2-D and best third year catagories. Just to see it up on the big cinema screen will be a proud moment and be a fantastic end to the whole process and university as a whole.

But 'Showtime' will have to be kept under wraps for just a little while longer, so here's a little teaser poster just to keeps your mouths watering until its release...

The Master strikes back...

Seeing as its the final week of production on showtime, I thought I'd treat you to a few poses from when the Master has had enough and strikes back...

 

 

 

Showtime hits the final week of production...

This week os the final week of Showtime's production- how time has flown. So its just a matter of tweaking and getting as many of the final touches added to the film as possible. Again, I dont want to ruin the film, it wont be long before you'll be able to see it in full, but this section is one that has been cleaned and finished this week and is looking alot better...

Mojo animations hits the world wide web...

Mojo animations now has a website featuring all of my animation projects to date, from an E4 sting to Good Day Bad Day, along with a collection of artwork to accompany and hopefully enhance each one. It also features work currently in progress to keep you on the edge of your seat as you wait for their arrival, so why not have a look for yourself at...

Relaxing with the Master...

 

The ending of the film needs to have an impact, needs to have built up to something that people will remember, so the spa in which the master is placed to relax has had a bit of a refit. Theres more detial in it that the other backgrounds but I feel that just shows the animators slightly apologetic mood here, giving him more detail to build his relaxation...

 

 

But ofcourse it doesnt last long and the animator soon has one last bit of fun with the Master...
